"Unto Robert from whose eyes the veil of life hath fallen may there be granted the accomplishment of his true Will; whether he wills absorption in the Infinite, or to be united with his chosen and preferred, or to be in contemplation, or to be at peace, or to achieve the labour and heroism of incarnation on this planet or another, or in any Star, or aught else, unto him may there be granted the accomplishment of his will; yea, the accomplishment of his will."

"And so it is that we, as men, do not exist until we do; and then it is that we play with our world of existent things, and order and disorder them, and so it shall be that non-existence shall take us back from existence and that nameless spirituality shall return to Void, like a tired child home from a very wild circus."

--Principia Discordia, pg 00058

Thanks for being a part of the circus, Bob; it was an awfully impressive act.

I looked up this blog site for the first time today after finishing my fourth reading of 'Cosmic Trigger I'. WOW! Even though you're now kickin' it up somewhere in the tunnel down the hall, I'll be seeing you....

Sail bonnie ship like a bird on the wing onward the sailors cry, carry the lad that's born to be king over the sea to Skye. Loud the wind howels, loud the waves roar, thunderclaps rend the air, baffled our foes, stand by the shore, follow they will not dare. Though the waves heave, soft will ye sleep, ocean's a royal bed, rocked in the deep, Flora will keep watch by your weary head.

Robert you will forever be in my heart & mind, Kansha! Aho! Love, & comfort to Robert Anton Wilson's family, peace be with you all. Tamara & Ishtar Rising

Goodbye, you magnificent bastard. You join the ranks of Bill Hicks, Frank Zappa, and Hunter S. Thompsons: for decades frustrated malcontents like me will be saying, "You know who we really need now?" and thinking of you.

The only possible immortality lies in the respect of those still living - hence RAW will live on a long while yet in the hearts and minds of those who loved his work, as well as those who knew him personally. Bon voyage, Mr. Wilson.

RAW gave me many hours of reading pleasure, and changed my whole view of the world.I hope that whatever happens after death is cool, and that h's having a great time.My best to his family and friends.Hail Eris!, and watch out for the fnords

Happy trails to you until we meet again.Happy trails to you, keep smilin' until then.Who cares about the clouds when we're together?Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather.Happy trails to you 'till we meet again.

Listen, uh - I just want to say thanks.So...thanks. Thanks for all the presents.Thanks for introducing me to the Chief.Thanks for putting on the feedbag. Thanks for going all out. Thanks for showing me your Swiss Army knife ... and uh - thanks for letting me autograph your cast.

I knew something went wrong with karma police, when she sent me that text message telling me not to contact her anymore, but then again, what is the personal disturbance from losing one girl compared to planertary disturbance from loosing one great visonary?

Or put the other way around: What is the pleasure deriven from exchanging worldviews, music, books, caresses and fun with one girl for some weeks compared to visionary notifying readers planetwide of worldviews, music, books, films and even more fun?

I'd always hoped to meet you in the flesh some day. But I'm an east coaster, alas. I wanted to just say "Thank you". Myself, the 117 people who commented before me and countless thousands others owe you so much, we wouldn't be the people we are today if it wasn't for you.

Here death may deal not again for ever; Here change may come not till all change end.From the graves they have made they shall rise up never,Who have left nought living to ravage and rend.Earth, stones, and thorns of the wild ground growing,While the sun and the rain live, these shall be;Till a last wind's breath upon all these blowingRoll the sea." - Charles A.Swinburne

i did not visit this website for months. And now I have to read sad news. Bob Wilson is already missing. He was a great teacher who did not deny that he was cosmic schmock.Thank you Bob for all the ideas you gave us to ponder about.

Thank you, Robert, for the Illuminatus! Trilogy at 13, and for Cosmic Trigger and Prometheus Rising at 33. Fare thee well, and may these bits speed to you, wherever you are. My children -- when they exist -- will know your name. -gabriel

thank you for your contribution to making this world a more creative place to live in. deepest sympathies to RAW's family, close families, fans, and future fans who have yet to discover the greatness of his works.

I have no single greater influence on my thinking than this man, other than perhaps my dad. And I got to discover at just that point in my life when everything was so damn dull (20) that it seemed like nothing could impress me. But he did.
